Hi,
I'm a MCAD who is 1 test away from MCSD (studying for 70-229, just
passed the 70-300) and I have recently started a new job at a company
that is not currently using .NET.
I have been tasked with giving a series of presentations to the
programmers at my company, in an effort to warm them up to the notion
of using .NET.
The first one will be a HIGH level overview, basically citing the
benefits of .NET (specifically VB.NET) and how its different than
classic VB, etc.
These are mostly Green Screen (mainframe) programmers, some of whom
have never even used regular VB... although I think a few have.
I'm not looking for anyone to write the presentation for me, BUT... if
there are some resources any of you have found helpful for this sort
of thing, some links would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks everyone,
Chris

Hi,
I created a COM AddIn for Word that performs the functions
that it needs to, but I needed to add the ability for the
toolbar created by the COM AddIn to remember it's last
position and whether it was docked or not. I added the
following code to my "OnConnection" function but it fails
with an error, "Run-time exception thrown :
System.IO.IOException - Bad file name or number."
With applicationObject.CommandBars("SampleToolbar")

How do I go about doing this? Basically I have a field where the user
inputs a doctors name, a field where the user inputs the doctors bio, and
then a picturebox where they select an image from their hard disk. I need
all this info to be saved into a Word template, but I'm not sure how to do
it.
I program in C++, but I have had some experience with VB.

Hello folks,
I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed.
This is as boiled down as I can make it.
